Bella is 2!

On the 18th of March, Bella turned 2! I can't believe I've had her for so long! She received 2 pig's ears and a packet of treats, which she was very happy with :)

Getting Fit!

This morning, at 8:30am, mum and I got up and went for a walk. Then, after that, we met up with mum's friend Lou, and Lou's dog, Zilla, and we went on the trail there. I will try and upload some photos later, but its not working at the moment :/  I think Bella might have a tick... my aunty thought it was fleas, but she's been coughing a bit, which I think is one of the symptoms of ticks. I will book her into the vet. Does anyone know any other symptoms? If so, please leave a comment.

New years resoloution: blog more!

I was just looking through the websites which I saved to "favourites", and I found Bella's blog! I looked at the last post and realised the last post was posted in July 2012. This year, I will try to post more! We might be going to the dog park tomorrow with mum's friend Lou and Zilla the Great Dane, so i might post some photos.

Bella on the computer!

New haircut!

This morning, I woke up and saw that Bella had poo stuck to her butt(again!), which meant I had to cut it off and trim the rest of the fur around that area. While I was doing this, I decided that she needed a face trim! btw, in the first pic, she is wearing a glow rope, as I had my school disco last night! I have recently taught Bella to growl on command! I will post a video soon!

????????

Today I came home to a very sad-looking Bella :(     I'm sure she'll be okay though :)    The other day, Bella had a spaz attack!!!!!!! Sadly, the video won't upload, but it was HILARIOUS!!!!!!!!

Happy Puppy!

On the weekend, I got Bella treats, a new toy and a pig's ear. She was very happy! I also found her sitting on a pillow this morning!

New coat and toy!

On the weekend, I got Bella a new coat(she has grown out of all her other ones!) and a new toy. She loved the toy so much, she decided to rip it's head off!!!!

Bella's Toys!

In the last post I said that I would show you Bella's toys that she got for her birthday. Here are some pics!

I also got some photos of Bella wearing an old top that I found! So Cute!!!!!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY BELLA!!!!!!

It was Bella's 1st birthday on Sunday! Happy Birthday Bella!!! I got her 2 new toys and she LOVES them. I will post a photo and video when I go on the computer(I'm doing this in my iPad.)

Harness!

Bella got a new harness!

Sadly, after about 3 weeks, she chewed it and ripped one of the pieces off. I. am. not. happy.

: (

Bella will probably have to have surgery because she has this thing with her knee,(can't remember what it's called) where some part of the knee disconnects from another part, so now she can't even walk properly :(

Sore pup

I just came home from taking Bella to the vet because sometimes she starts limping and we think there is something wrong with her tummy. We got some medicine that I have to give her every day. It came down to $93.90

Loyal pup!

Today I came home from school early because I was really sick, but I was happy when I got home because my beautiful puppy slept next to me and kept me company. My mum is a massage therapist, and she had a client come over today, and Bella said hello and came straight back to me instead of staying near the person for 10 mins. She's the best puppy ever!!!!!!!

Working on heel!

Hey everyone! I taught Bella 'side'(She comes to my side) which I am now turning into 'heel'. Sadly, Bella won't be getting as much attention soon because school starts on Monday :(

Cute photo's

Today Bella was a very happy dog! We were running heaps and playing fetch. Sadly, because we were running so much, she threw up, but I got some really cute photo's!(not of the vomit!)

And some from yesterday!





Cheese!

I have recently found out that Bella LOVES cheese. I was doing a training session(I'm teaching her 'side') and she refused to eat the treats which she usually loves, so for some reason, I decided to give her cheese and she LOVED it! It will save me money too, since I won't have to buy the cheese as it is something that mum always buys. Bella also has a new hobby: chasing butterflies. She even chases their shadow's!

chewing problem :l

Hey everyone! I can't wait till Christmas! Bella really needs a new collar and another registration tag because she chewed them both. she has been chewing a lot lately, like about 2 weeks ago, she chewed the couch covers, she didn't do very much damage but mum had to pay $60 to get them fixed because it was the day after my auntie put them on gumtree and said that they were in excellent condition.

Roll over

I am currently teaching Bella to roll over, which is quite hard because she keeps getting up, can anybody help me?

you will do what I say!

I have discovered a new way to get your dog to not do something e.g chew shoes, nip etc. Okay, the answer is, when you see them do something that you don't like, tie them up on a long line or just their normal lead. It has definately worked for Bella! Yesterday she was going nuts when I was brushing her, which she doesn't normally do, so I tied her to a pole in my backyard, today she stood still unless there were knots that were hard to get out.
